We booked the tour for our last night in Sapporo and what a great way to end our stay in the great city. We tasted different tasty dishes, including sashimi, zangi chicken, grilled lamb and ramen in lovely izakaya.
Our guide, Ayumi, was wonderful, providing interesting facts about Hokkaido and Sapporo and we had really good chat with her and the other participant of the tour.
All in all, a great tour and would recommend it to those who want to learn more about Hokkaido cuisine.

We had a fantastic time on this food tour. It was just the two of us plus one other guest, which made it feel really personal and relaxed. There was lots of great food and drinks throughout the tour, and the conversation was just as enjoyable as the stops themselves.

This was a fun tour. Our guide, Kaz, was very genuine and was able to give us lots of information. The experience felt more like hanging out with friends, even though we had just met Kaz and our other travelers. We were able to also go to places that we never would've found on our own. We would definitely recommend!

I had a great evening out with delicious food and drinks and Kay was a fantastic guide! The variety of izakayas we visited made for a varied evening with lots to eat. We all had such a good time that we carried on to several other bars after the tour until well after midnight! Sapporo is a very safe city and it’s no problem walking around late at night. Thanks to Kay for making a really memorable evening.

Good vibes, awesome drink selection, tasty food, and a super chill atmosphere to enjoy with friends!! 😊🍹
Bruce_S, Feb 2026
We had a great evening bar and food hopping with the Magical Tour. We were very lucky as we were the only ones and had a private tour with the lovely Midori. She asked us what food we liked and catered towards our wishes. The first place offered unlimited drinks and two small dishes each, then onto the gyoza bar, followed by a place that had the best oysters. We highly recommend this tour. Thank you so much Midori, you were wonderful!
Nicole_N, Feb 2026
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Midori! She was thoughtful and attentive to types of foods we had yet to try. The experience far exceeded our expectations and we left with full bellies and smiles on our faces. Highly recommend booking this activity, you’ll be taken fo places you would never find on your own!

Good vibes and enjoyed meeting new people. Great food and drinks. Highly recommend especially if you are a shy person

A fantastic tour of three izakayas in the center of Sapporo! The tour was a great way to experience some of the classic dishes from Hokkaido, and it gave us an opportunity to familiarize ourselves with some new dishes at the end of our trip to Japan.
And it was led by the charming and lively Kotomi! She was an awesome guide, very knowledgeable, and formidable eater and drinker who made sure we all had fun. 10/10 would do it again!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
